Belong

Belong

A Poem by Colton Warr

She belongs in the temporary moments of a dream 

Taking me away from my nightmare screams

On my knees for my sins, her love redeems

She has, to this day, been my one and only theme 

She belongs to an unknown planet out in space 

I am crash landing and so I brace

The way back home I never want to retrace

Forever we are to roam the stars, hands interlaced

She belongs in the great blue sky

If up is not the way then I have gone awry

We can lay with the clouds until we die

If her touch is the rain, I never want to be dry

She belongs to the vastness of the ocean

Which ever way her tide pulls, that is my motion

Like to the sand the waters soaks, she is my devotion

I have crashed into her like a wave and I love the commotion

She belongs to all of the wonders of our galaxy

She belongs to all of history’s kings and queens

She belongs to the Angel who plays the harp and sings

She belongs to every golden thing, yet here she is kissing me

Love is the true sweetness of life. Nothing compares.
It is everything...
...in its absence we are nothing except lost, awaiting that gentle rush to overwhelm us once again.
It is life's greatest joy...
...and its greatest pain.
It is as a dichotomy in nature.
I miss her so.

Well done, my friend.
I hope that you find love as true as that of my Karin...
...for then you will have everything.

I could have not said it any better than that, my friend! So beautiful! I can't even begin to imagine or comprehend how it would feel to lose someone as perfect as your wife must have been. And I know she was because she picked a strong and loving man to be with. You will see her again one day and you will get to be with her for all of eternity. I am so grateful that you read this piece!

P.S. It makes my soul happy that my words can remind you of someone who sounds like an angel. Just wanted to thank you for giving me that opportunity. Thank you for your support.

She was the strong one, and she truly was an angel.
But she, like all of us, was flawed and had her struggles.
Life can get very ugly sometimes, and soon I'll try to depict her courage in dealing with it.
Thanks.

I love the opening line. In the line that starts with "I have crashed into her" I believe there should be a comma between wave and the word and since it seems like a compound sentence
Good work :)

[Colton Warr]

You have such talent. They way you create the rhythm in your poem makes me stare in awe at my computer screen, for the flow in your poem makes me hungry for more.
Love is one of the few things that everyone in this world can understand. It's part of the universal language, tracing back to our existence.
This sentence is so beautiful: "If her touch is the rain, I never want to be dry". You are one of the chosen ones who must share his thoughts with the world, for your poems may last forever in our history.

Good job :D

Amazing poetry for love my friend.
"She belongs to all of the wonders of our galaxy
She belongs to all of history’s kings and queens
She belongs to the Angel who plays the harp and sings
She belongs to every golden thing, yet here she is kissing me "
The above lines could stand alone. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.
